Does anyone know anything about the Linksys NAS200 Network Storage adapter?
I'm using WinXP-Home with a Linksys WRT54G v5 Wireless DSL Broadband Router.

The storage adapter holds (2) SATA drives, I understand other remote PC's can access this
via web browser or ftp using passwords. Supposedly, other users can upload and/or download
files to and from the storage adapter based on permissions I set up for them.

Is there anything else $$ needed to accomplish this?
Is the TZO DNS Dynamic DNS service required to do basic file shares between remote PC's?
The TZO software is embedded in the NAS200. Is this really needed?

Thanks for any advice!

TZO and DynDNS "service" provides a method of finding your "device"
based on a name (ie: "mydevice.tzo.org") instead of IP address
(192.168.2.21) across the Interent. You need this type of service if
you are not using a static IP address Internet service. If you are
not "enabling" this device to be "seen" on the Internet, then you do
not need this.

What exactly is your difficulties with this device.
